The Federal Highway Administration's latest estimate for the Emergency Relief program identified $1.3 billion in projects in disaster-affected areas. This bill actually contains something more than that: $1.65 billion. But the FHWA…

I want to thank the gentleman from California for introducing this amendment and highlighting the issue of the FHWA not granting extensions when they are needed and when they are justified. It is important to highlight the issue, and as…

I thank my colleague for yielding. Madam Chair, I do want to speak in strong support of this amendment which may well be the most important amendment to be offered this morning. I certainly think that with respect to my home State of North…

I thank our Appropriations chair for yielding this time, and I rise in support of this disaster supplemental, which will provide $17.2 billion in long overdue assistance for North Carolina and for other States and territories that have…

It is a critical time. It is a time of maximum chaos and political turmoil, orchestrated by a vindictive president seeking scapegoats.

I would say the new normal is you will see more visible ICE presence out in the communities.

Mr. Secretary, I want to raise an interdepartmental budget issue for you.

I want to move onto another question.

Like many Members of Congress, I have felt some obligation to travel to the border to see these conditions myself.

I want you to comment on it.

I appreciate your comments about the way the diversion of personnel from the interior to the border surge has compromised your abilities.

The commander of NORTHCOM command said publicly that there is no military threat on the southern border, so spending money for a wall, potentially at the expense of health of our service members, just doesn't seem like the right priority.

Before spending more money and, potentially, lives on this endeavor, it is important to identify what we, as a country, and us, as a military, are trying to achieve.

I thank my colleague and I rise in strong support of H.R. 1. It is a comprehensive, once-in-a- generation blueprint for reforming our democratic system, ranging from gerrymandering to voter suppression, and voting rights to the dominance…

I urge you to fund this account at least at $30 million in Fiscal Year 2020.

I want to stay on the subject of ICE enforcement, the policies and practices attendant to that.

I thank my colleague for yielding and for calling this Special Order to pay tribute to our departed friend and colleague, Walter Jones, Jr. Walter died on February 10, his 76th birthday. He lived a full life of service: four years in the…

I urge you to provide robust funding to the TIP Office so it can improve justice systems and prosecutions of traffickers and sex buyers in partner nations.

I don't want to pass by the opportunity to thank you for the good work your people did in North Carolina and the Carolinas generally with Hurricane Florence last summer.

the most significant barrier to ensuring the crucial U.S. assistance reaches the Palestinian people is the Trump administration's decision to indefinitely cut off such aid and end U.S. contributions to UNRWA.
